Pros

I was lucky to be blessed with a GM who had my best interest and professional advancement at heart. Any criticism I received was always constructive. While our office was small, it was like a family.

Cons

Unfortunately, the job position requires extensive weekend shifts especially during the busy season. However, without these overtime hours the pay wasn't nearly enough to live off of. It did not make for a great work/life balance.

Edlen is a Family!

Pros

Edlen is very much a family. It is a small company so you don't feel like a number. I usually feel appreciated for the work that I do. The starting salary is good, and the raise schedule is much better than that of a larger corporation. The travel is not mandatory but is a nice change of pace. Upper management is very friendly and understanding.

Cons

The Chicago office is very slow and has a high turnover. There is no real procedure standard throughout the company and no training plan. The health benefits are not great. The other benefits (sick leave etc.) are so bad they are laughable. "Bodies" are hired [temporarily] *read hired full time and let go* to fill positions knowing they will not be a good fit for the company or that role. Employees are asked to step outside of their job duties to fill gaps in other positions with little to no training. I was promised more OT but this office is slow and I haven't been given much opportunity for travel.
